Automatic forms generated from report display all main sheet fields on browser
I think I've found a bug: Automatic forms generated from reports in the browser (right click in the line mover on far left > edit) display all main sheet fields on it. It doesn’t matter what columns I have chosen to display in the report creator, but in the smartsheet android app the automatic generated form of a report…
Automation for "all boxes checked but this one"
Hi Group! We use a very simple set of workflows (essentially tasklists) where people from various departments receive an Automation Workflow alert when someone clicks a cell in a Done column. So it's something like "The trigger is When Rows are changed, and Done is checked and Row ID is X". Now I need a method to trigger…
Report viewable to others
Is there a way to make a report I have automatically available for others to view it? Daily I click refresh on a report so the executives can have the most up to date info.

Dashboard Charts are Blurry/Fuzzy
Hello all - I am building a dashboard and wanted to include a few charts. However, my charts come up fuzzy, regardless of size. See below. These are pretty nicely sized on my dashboard and still showing blurry. I saw from a post in Nov 2018 this was a known issue. Anyone else have this issue? Any fixes or updates? Thanks!

I am trying to count the cells that are not blank based on a repetitive criterion I have this formula = count ([Find # 1]: [Find # 8], [Line / Area]: [Line / Area], "40100" It is not accepted to place a criterion on this count, how can I do it? regards
Basic Chart
I'm trying to create a chart that counts the number of entries in a particular column. eg a column which lists employee names. How do i produce a chart which tells me how many rows that name appears in? Thanks in advance for any tips
Issues with app
I noticed that a few of my charts either look different or exclude some data when I view my dashboards on the app. For example, I have a report that doesn't show the last row as it does when I'm on my pc. Another chart is lacking the data labels I have enabled. Is this common or do I need to adjust settings in the app?
